WTF with Marc Maron Podcast

Comedian Marc Maron is tackling the most complex philosophical question of our day - WTF? He'll get to the bottom of it with help from comedian friends, celebrity guests and the voices in his own head.

Micheal Showalter is a founding member of The State, a writer, a director and now a university professor. He talks to Marc about his successes, his failures, his failures that he sees as successes, why he doesn't see himself as an L.A. guy, and why he doesn't see himself as a comedian. Plus, Marc divulges the details of his involvement in a major project.

Joe Rogan is an intimidating guy. He's a trained martial artist and an intensely focused comedian. Maybe that's why Marc had issues with him in the past. Then again, maybe it was because of Joe's hosting gig on Fear Factor, or his infamous run-in with Carlos Mencia, or his past dating history. They'll sort through all of that, plus Joe tells a story of backing down from a fight... with Buddy Hackett.

Live from Brooklyn, NY, robotics specialist Heather Knight introduces Data, a robot who performs stand-up comedy, Otto and George bring the first ventriloquist act to WTF, Liam McEneaney tries to cope with the success of his new movie, Ted Alexandro agonizes over a strange proposition, and Todd Barry compares bad fan mail with Marc.

The guy who plays Star-Burns on "Community" is actually a driving force behind some of the biggest comedy landmarks of the past two decades. Dino Stamatopoulos talks with Marc about his work on The Ben Stiller Show, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, Mr. Show, TV Funhouse, Moral Orel, and Drinky Crow. And he has some good stories about a dominatrix.
